last nights shift in the Minnie Moore
mine were sinking sump some 10
feet distant west from the 750-foot
level of the incline, for the purpose of
draining the 70O-level. While at
this work they suddenly encountered
very rich ore, and found what has since
been ascertained to be solld ledge
of frst-cla shipping ore. The ledge
is over four feet wide, of the highest
grade, and gives promise of being an
immense body of ore which requires
no concentrating. This find has so
elated the Superintendent that he
thinks it will be necessary to order a
new cable for the mine, to reach 1000
feet or more down the mine. The
find also completely explodes the
theory and dispels the fear that our
mines are liable to peter out as
depth is attained. Score one more,
and the biggest of all, for the Minnie

BLAKKFooT REPORTER: We un-
derstand from reliable source that
orders have been issued from Wash
lngton, for the removal of all Nor
mon postmasters now holding Office
in Idaho. We have known for some
time that Delegate DUBOIS was using
every endeavor to secure the issuance
of an order to this effect, and we are
pleased to learn that his efforts have
been crowned with success. The
man or woman who refuses any but
a cool, secondary allegiance to this
Government is not proper person to
help administer it's affairs.

DIR. Lee made thoughtful and
conservative talk, while DIR. Hawthorne was
vituperative. One of his remarks was: SThe

believes the law will 60 into effect at

ANOTHER SHOW FOR JAKE SHARE

The Court of Appeals Decides That He
Must Have New Trial.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The court of APP
peals handed down q decision at Albany
Tuesday morning reversing the judgment in
the case of Jacob Sharp and ordering new
trial. The Judgment of tho lower court is
reversed on the ground that the enactment of
section 70 Of the penal code is constitutional,
and the protection afforded by that section
renders erroneous the admission upon Sharps
trial OF his evidence before the senate COM
mittee, which evidence IS held to have been
given on compulsion, because If he had re-
fused to testify he would have been impris-
onsd for contempt, and his testimony there
was not public property and could properly
be used in the criminal trial The decision
is supported by citations from various au-
thorties The court also holds that the rules
of law were violated to the prejudice Of the
defendant by the testimony OF Pottles and
others
Judge Peckham adds a supplemental dc.
cision, in which he holds that Politics. evil
dence tended to convict defendant Of crime
which he was not on trial for. He says:
"When man is on trial for one offence it is
not justice to convict him Of many by wit
ness called upon TO give testimony only In
that case: that is. case of man commit
ting former crimes should not help to con-
vict him OF ono charged later on"

~ don't think that any one in the Demo-
cratic party doubts that Mr.. Cleveland will

evasively. "As to his election, there are yet
twelve months before next November, and

"Will Mr.. Carlisle be candidate for the
